About this audio guide
This guide to Taman Safari Bali starts with a smuggled two-year-old orangutan pulled from an airport luggage carousel in March 2019, sedated and packed alongside geckos and lizards by a traveler bound for South Korea. It follows the infant ape, later named Bon Bon, into the round-the-clock care of the safari park's keepers. Watch for the orangutans as you pass — one of them arrived this way.
